vacation rental description

Welcome and thank you for considering our property! Barton Bungalow is a charming two-bedroom, two-bath vacation rental home in the heart of Austin, which can accommodate up to 6 adults. Whether you're coming to experience the "Third Coast's" world-class music and art scene, participate in Austin's abundant outdoor activities, or simply explore the great restaurants, shopping, and funky vibe that make Austin a top-rated travel destination and place to live, Barton Bungalow is your perfectly-Austin "home away from home." Located just south of Lady Bird/Town Lake in hip Barton Heights, Barton Bungalow is within easy walking distance of some of Austin's best attractions: Barton Springs Pool and Zilker Park (site of the Austin City Limits Music Festival and the Trail of Lights), the Long Performing Arts and Palmer Event Centers, the hike-and-bike trail and Lady Bird/Town Lake, Restaurant Row, and Austin's newest shopping district, SoLa (South Lamar). You're also just minutes by car, bike, bus, or cab from the center of downtown and the 6th Street, Warehouse (4th Street) and 2nd Street entertainment districts, the Texas State Capitol, and the University of Texas.

The house is an updated and expanded bungalow that combines the best of old and new and is decorated with eclectic and thoughtful touches to make you feel immediately at home. All of the standard amenities (see list below) are found in the inviting indoor spaces; the professionally landscaped yard that extends from the rear screened porch provides a welcome retreat after your busy days exploring the city. Easy access to all Austin offers and comfortable privacy - the best of both worlds.

We look forward to your visit!

Great House to Rent in a Great Location

dorespoint (Texas)
Review submitted: November 16, 2011   Date of arrival: November 3, 2011

This house was a fantastic find in a great neighborhood and location in Austin. It is very close to Barton Springs and only a short ride to all the downtown attractions. The house is perfect for a long lazy weekend or an extended stay with family. The ammenties are great with a fantastic kitchen with and a great screened in porch in the back to enjoy the outside. There is a grill in the back as well if needed. The rooms were very comfortable and very clean,much cleaned then many fine hotels. We were there on a football weekend and found the neighborhood very quiet and peacful which was nice on a hectic weekend.

I would highly recommend staying at this house for many types of trips to Austin.

Love the Barton Bungalow

paige (austin, TX)
Review submitted: May 4, 2011   Date of arrival: April 23, 2011

We loved our stay at the Barton Bungalow! It provided calm and luxury while we were having work done on our house. It was very much a real home with all the comforts and charm one hopes for (only much cleaner, immaculate, in fact). We appreciated the spaciousness of it too--especially the bedrooms and master bath. The front porch rocks!--great breezes on the hill and lots of shade under the oaks and pecans. The house had everything we needed and more. Thanks Eric for a great week!

A beautiful home to stay in the heart of Austin

trickedisco (Point Arena)
Review submitted: February 16, 2011   Date of arrival: December 14, 2010

I am originally from austin and had been living in california going to school. when i finished school i decided i wanted to move back the my original home town. i chose to stay at the Barton Bungalow while i looked around for a more permanent place to stay. This house was reasonably priced and absolutely beautiful on the inside. Both bedrooms were very spacious, and the pull out couch-bed was also very comfortable. The master bathroom and closet were enormous. Located just south of the river, it is 5 minutes away from pretty much anything you would want to be doing in austin. Tons of bike trails, and even a lovely bicycle rental store just at the bottom of the hill. countless gourmet restaurants within walking distance. Also just a hop skip and a jump away from the downtown life, and the craziness of 6th street. A must see for anyone new to Austin. The owner of the house was extremely pleasant as well. he came to the house on christmas eve and gave me a bottle of alcohol to warm the spirits. Even one more bonus to my stay were the pecans. i came just after pecan season and the entire neighborhood is littered with pecan trees. get up early and take a walk around the block the snag the pecans the neighbors and squirrels haven't gotten to yet! All in all i was very pleased with my stay, and if anyone i knew was coming to visit Austin, i would recommend this house before any other.
